Starting the blog before the pilgrimage

photo (1)Celebrating life before the training and the pilgrimage.  Always trying to put as much Carpe in my Diem as possible.  Anything worth doing is worth doing to excess.  I will walk about 5000 miles before I start the 500 miles of the Camino Frances.  Likely carrying more than I need and walking faster than necessary.  I expect that the Camino will be a bit of a metaphor for life.  Entered into with anticipation and some knowledge but with sufficient confidence that I can handle it.  This is how I entered into most jobs, and most of the roles I have played in my life.  My hope is that by the time I enter the cathedral in Santiago de Compastella I will be as pleased and proud as I have been for all those things above.

  1. This is going to take some getting used to. Writing a blog in the first person after many years of writing professionally for the government will be difficult. I have already messed up enough words and have not yet started.
